Welcome, welcome my Freaky Friends!!! You should have just jumped here from the fantabulous blog of my BFF and Fellow Control Freak, the Infamous JanTink! Weren't her projects AWESOME?!?! I swear, it's sweet bein' Freaky!! I LOVE fall, so this month's projects were MUI-FUN to work on!!
Not only do I love fall, I REALLY love Halloween!! I don't know if I can really say that it is my FAVORITE holiday, but I can't say that it's NOT, either!! I love dressing up, the school carnival, making beef stew (a Halloween tradition) ... everything about it!! Dare I say that this card is an ELEGANT spooky card? Is there such a thing?? I'm not even very good about sending Halloween cards, but I DO like making them!Stamps: From the Crypt, Teeny Tiny Wishes

Next, I made this card after I was inspired my yet ANOTHER Freak, Mary Brown. Here is HER lovely creation:Mary's Leaves

And for my final project, I made this cute little Thanksgiving frame (saw something similar SOMEwhere when I was blurfing).

Now, I just gotta find a place to hang it up!!Stamps: Day of Gratitude
